Cantaloupe Skewers with Mint Lime Yogurt Sauce

Here is a quick, fun and healthy snack that’s perfect for warmer weather. This recipe for Cantaloupe Skewers with Mint Lime Yogurt Sauce is as easy as cubing some cantaloupe, skewering them and then tossing together a yogurt dipping sauce.

Probably the hardest part of making them is knowing how to cut the cantaloupe. Fortunately, Cutco has a great video on How to Cut Cantaloupe so take a quick few minutes to check that out before you start.

I recommend using Cutco’s Gourmet Prep Knife for the job. Its hefty, sharp Double-D®-edge blade powers through the thick rind and then easily transitions into the fruit for easy slicing and cubing.

The mint lime yogurt sauce in this recipe is the perfect accompaniment to fresh, ripe cantaloupe, but you could also use it with other fresh fruits and vegetables. Even try it on grilled meats.
